Artist: Weezer
Song: You Gave Your Love To Me Softly (live?)
Album: El Scorcho (single) and Angus soundtrack
Tabbed by: //.depht
E-mail: fakeplasticskies@aol.com

Well, I tabbed this is off the live version Weezer
they played on the concert that aired on MTV2,
so Im not sure if this is how the real song goes.

Standard Eb Tuning (low to high: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)

The lyrics aren't exactly when they are said with the guitar parts
but they are in the right place. (on the second half of this tab,
the lyrics aren't there, you can figure it out)

DON'T PLAY THIS SLOWLY! PLAY IT QUICKLY!
Example: This is the intro.
Eb|-------------------------------------------------|
Bb|-------------------------------------------------|
Gb|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-----------------|
Db|-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|
Ab|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|
Eb|---------------------------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|

Don't play this with just downstrokes like if they were 1 beat each.
All of the "chords" are a half a beat, in other words: an Eight note.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Listen to song along with this and you'll know this is right.

This is Weezer, not calculus. It's about a wonderful, vulnerable one-night stand that went beyond the "Tired of Sex" stigma of emptiness in such situations. With that said, and with relatively simple lyrics, this is still one of their best songs and from their golden days.

This is my favorite Weezer song ever. It's just so sweet. It's one of those songs that make you want to hug Rivers. Or maybe that's just me. By the way, it's actually "Bijan". I have it, it smells nice, and it does linger on and on and on ;)

Anyone notice a slow version of this song can be sung along to the chorus of "Don't cry" by Guns N Roses? Spooky... Apart from the bridge maybe
